IMO, I love what webOS stands for, but I think "web" of webOS brings a bad stigma along with it. First, in the minds of misinformed developers, web means you can't do native programming. Second, in the minds of everyday people, web means internet. It's all about the apps these days. People are thinking about a internet page, when the hear web not a cool apps. I think webOS has a very big mind share problem. Something needs to be done. This is just one idea.
I am not very creative, but some name ideas :
hpOS
OSnext
OSnex
With all due respect, I think this is an idiotic idea. The "Web" in WebOS does not carry any stigma, except maybe in your world. People like open operating systems, which is what the "Web" actually implies. I think you're the only person who thinks "web page" when you hear WebOS. I'm not trying to be offensive, but for real dude.....
